We just wrapped up the first year of STAAR testing here in Texas. Students answered multiple choice questions to the best of their test taking ability as I monitored (actively) in silence for four hours.
Today in a faculty meeting my principal mentioned a consortium to review how we assess our students and if there is a better way to do it than a standardized multiple choice test.
I think it's hilarious that we just started STAAR and we are now discussing things to replace it. You just have to love education. "Change" or be replaced. It's a pretty big beast to change.
